A close-up of a round, fluffy seed head (dandelion-like) on a thin stem, backlit by warm late-afternoon sunlight with a blurred street scene and parked cars in the background.

Found this in the street last night around sunset.

fun fact anker docking stations are NOT designed to swap the usb cord between computers. ymmv but it landed me in the "usb last connected...." loop. I think i finally resolved it completely unplugging everything from the dock, rebooting the machine, and then making the anker software update/repair the firmware. It finally settled down. GEESH. You'd think that'd be basic functionality that a dock or usb hub might float.

Found the power brick for this Atom x5-Z8350 1.44GHz, 4GB RAM small form factor PC. It runs Win 11 (that's what it came with) but sllowwly. Not sure what I'll do with it. It's too slow to do anything with the Windows GUI. Maybe something headless? Ideas welcome.

I was thinking about #Obsidian, a growing knowledge base and linking. In the beginning, as you make notes on a topic, you don't make links because you don't know the facts are related yet. It would be cool, and maybe a good use of AI, if there were a tool that could go back and link all your notes and build the knowledge graph. Think of one of those boards in detective shows where they just start pinning facts to the board. Victim, crime scene, suspect 1 then some clue is revealed and everything links up and you have a case.

This could be "the largest data theft in history." - @alaw202@masthead.social

The Inspector General at the Social Security Admin was WARNED about the massive risk DOGE was taking with our private data, but the #DOGEBros wouldn't stop.

Chuck Borges, former Chief Data Officer of the SSA, quit & became a Whistleblower so it would be taken seriously.

On @nicolesandler@mstdn.social he said Congress should be jumping at the heels of #DOGE Bros to get the truth.

I wish there was some way of joining #Obsidian to my browser, such that when I search for something I get a popup saying "You have extensive notes on this after researching this exact issue 3 years ago and have since forgotten about"
